Changed cluster now have warning lights on???

Ok, so as the title says, i changed my instrument cluster earlier today on my 2003 td6 l322 as my old one was faulty, now i have abs, brake and traction lights on the dash. I had these thrown up when taking my old clocks out and connecting them back up but they dissapeared once i drove down the road. Since i have put the new clocks in the lights wont go out. Any ideas what this could be?

I've just refitted mine after I had the LCD ribbons replaced. Mines did the same.. plugged in the iid tool and it was showing lots of bus related faults obviously to do with disconnection.. was able to clear them and nothing's come back..

When i refitted the origional clister the lights went off pretty much straight away after driving off... for some reason on the new cluster they are staying on... even the downhill mode light is very faintly lit. I have driven quite a distance today on the motorway, even left the car switched off for over an hour and they are still on. Its the annoyance of it, hate having lights on the dash

You only need to 'code' the cluster to your car to remove the tamper dot that appears next to the trip meter.

To do this you need a program called P.A.Soft 1.40 and a cable, both are available from eBay. You need to change the VIN number in the IKE section of the new cluster to the VIN number of your car, I think it's the last 5 - 7 numbers of your VIN.

I've done this and the tamper dot disappears. I didn't get the multiple lights like you have but I would suggest disconnecting the battery for a while and doing a complete reset, alternatively did you buy the right cluster? I know there's differences between the petrol and diesel versions.

Everything said so far is true!

I also found all those lights were caused by the vin being different between the steering angle sensor and cluster! It needs coding to your car

Thank you all for the replies. My mechanic has a top of the range snapon dignostics machine, would he be able to code it from that? I know some machines dont work resetting range rover susp etc but this one does. Hoping he will be able to code it from there... bloody range rovers!

Hi,

I don't think a snap on diagnostic machine could change the VIN in cluster, you need PA Soft 1.40 for that.

As far as the steering angle sensor is concerned that will only need to be calibrated. The information it swaps with the cluster is only to do with angle calibration not the VIN, so hook it up to either an IIDtool or some other machine capable of calibration and you should be ok.

Have you carried out the steering lock to lock procedure yourself?

Start the car then turn the steering wheel fully left and hold it for a second then steer fully right and again hold it there for a second then steer to centralise. It sets the steering parameters.

I read stackers comment above and his experience is different to mine. When I changed the cluster I didn't need to code the steering angle sensor I just needed to calibrate it whereas he seemed to need to code it to his VIN.
